So, I recently rewatched the previous season of RHOC and I started noticing something about Gina that's carrying over into this season...

Last season, Heather told Gina that her boyfriend was not her therapist. And a few of the other women agreed that when a woman is talking so much about their ex to her current boyfriend, that woman is clearly not over her ex.

I think this is what has happened to Gina. I don't think she is over her ex. Even when she was getting a divorce, she really wanted it to work. She claims it was the DA that caused her life to change course (she says this at last season's reunion). So it makes me wonder, had he never harmed her, would she still be trying to pursue him?

This season, Gina states that she and her ex's relationship is great. However, we also hear her say she's not comfortable anymore with her living situation with her boyfriend and she doesn't like his issues with her baby mama.

When her life was kind of cruddy, Gina leaned on her boyfriend a lot. And she didn't mind when their two families all lived together, nor did she mind his baby mama drama. Now that she's gaining a little popularity on the show and some more financial independence. Suddenly, she doesn't like their situation. And again, she has become close with her ex..? I'm paraphrasing a bit, but she also said she doesn't like it when she wants to treat just her kids but feels pressured to treat his (her boyfriend's) kids too. Does anyone else catch that she still sees a separation between her kids and her boyfriend's kids, but that her boyfriend calls them "our kids"?

In another post, I did mention that Gina has a habit of getting close to people when she thinks she can benefit from them. We see this with her friendship with Heather, especially this season. And if you watch the major difference between how Gina treated Jen last season (when she thought Jen had money) versus this season (when she realizes Jen is basically broke) it is a huge difference. So maybe her boyfriend is going through financial trouble or maybe now that he needs someone to be his shoulder to cry on, she wants nothing to do with him.

So, my theory is, Gina is either done using her boyfriend or is setting things up to get back with her ex (maybe). What are your thoughts?
